Mission Briefing
Luxurious
Today’s Miro Cellars 2013 Petite Sirah Reserve Coyote Ridge Vineyard is a luxurious, delicious wine that is just stuffed with flavor and bursting with aromatics. As great as this wine is, today, we recommend that you lay down a few bottles to enjoy over the next few years. If you’ve been shopping with us since 2007, hopefully you have a few bottles of previous vintages of this wine. It is always great fun to compare vintages.
This wine is young, but it is ready to drink. Enjoy it on its own, if you dare, or pair it with your more robust and complex food dishes. Try something spicy or darkly rich. A big bowl of spicy steak chili would be an excellent pairing for this beautiful beast of a wine.
Tasting Profile
| Look: | Deep and inky purple with an opaque core that you can’t even see through! |
|---|---|
| Smell: | Very fragrant, with giant blackberry, blueberry and raspberry notes that meld with cigar box, sweet fall leaves, milk chocolate and dark spices. |
| Taste: | An explosion of bold flavors, including mixed dark berry compote, black cherry, sweet oak, sweetwood, cherry cordial candy and alpine strawberry. |
| Finish: | Exceptionally long, with black fruit flavors that seem to go on forever. |
| Pairing: | Enjoy this delicious beast with a Moroccan beef stew, a Chili con Carne or a rich beef and sausage lasagne. |
